Stayed in the Thistle with a group of 40 people,and heard no complaints, other than bar prices were high.This is the same in any city hotel so i would not let it stop me going back.The hotel is very nice, in a good location and has parking.We had a lovely big room with safe and fridge included and the bathroom had a bath as well as a walk in shower.Did'nt use the fitness centre so i can't comment on that.Breakfast was included in our deal and was a very nice buffet,the chef came out and chatted to people which was a nice touch.I found this to be a very good hotel and the rooms very soundproof, we were on floor 7.

My family and I stayed here for two days in early November 2012. The hotel was clean, the fitness center was great and the pool was enjoyed by my two year old. What really made this was the fact that we left our passports in the room safe and the staff were so accommodating in helping us retrieve them that they've won our business forever. Thanks Thistle!

Stayed for two nights while attending a conference held in the hotel. Can't say enough about the staff and how helpful and friendly they were throughout our stay. There was no table for our group at dinner on Saturday night but they set two tables very quickly and with no fuss. Great food, amazing breakfasts, very comfortable room. A very good hotel in a superb position just off Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow.

We stayed here for 3 nights, as a base to explore the city. In a great location for shopping and eating etc. The room was lovely, very comfortable beds, took me a while to work out how to open the window and when I did got a huge daddy long-legs to the face. View wasn't great, but it was clean, comfortable, everything you'd expect from a hotel. The staff were friendly and the pool and steam room were brilliant!! The only thing I would say, is that the pool is part of the health club so is not only used by hotel guests, meaning sometimes it can get a bit busy. Through the day though we usually had the place to ourselves. Lovely hotel.

Stayed for one night with my boyfriend in October, had a brilliant time.

Room was a bargain, bed massive and nice decor. Only thing was the shower curtain in the bathroom wasn't the cleanest! Used the swimming pool and sauna etc, perfect! Bar was quiet but reasonable and staff were very attentive.

Lifts are a bit slow in coming, they seem to forget the order but using the stairs was not a problem!

Location spot on! Wouldn't hesitate to book up again!

I am so pleased you had a brilliant time at the Thistle Glasgow, and you had the opportunity to enjoy the swimming pool and the sauna.

The hotel has a Guest Relations Manager available 24 hours a day, and I am sorry they werenot aware of your dissatisfaction and given the opportunity to ensure you were completely happy with your visit to our hotel. thank you for posting your review, and I hope to welcome you back soon!

Quite disappointing really! The most important thing you look for in a hotel is a decent bed, and the tiny size of the double bed in our room took our breath away - I almost queried whether it was a double at all! The decor of the room was ok but unspectacular. Our view overlooked grim buildings opposite. The bathroom was small and pretty ordinary, with poor toiletries. I will definitely look elsewhere on my next trip to Glasgow.

Dear Reviewer,I am very sorry to read that your first visit to our hotel was disappointing. The hotel has refurbished four floors of bedrooms and next January we will be commencing with the remaining four floors. We offer various types of bedrooms with varying prices to suite guest requirements. Our unrefurbished rooms, although some of the furniture may be slighty tired in appearance, are spacious clean and comfortable. The hotel enjoys having a Guest Relations Manager available 24 hours a day, allowing us the opportunity to ensure we can solve any problems or issues guests may experience during their stay, and I regret they were not aware of your disatisfaction. I do hope you will consider re-visiting us when perhaps you could enjoy one of our refurbished bedrooms. Thank you for taking the time to post your feedback.
